Abstract | ||
The bulbs of Crinum augustum Rox. Fam. Amaryllidaceae were extracted with ethanol (95%) by maceration and percolation. From the petroleum ether fraction four saturated straight chain hydrocarbons, 24-methylene cycloartanol and cycloeucalenol were isolated and identified. The identification of these compounds was based on GLC-Mass spectrometry. In addition, an alkaloid (ungeremine) was also isolated and characterized from the n-butanol extract. | ||
